Nationalists take responsibility for blowing up "Neva-Express" train

A spokesman of the Movement Against Illegal Migration (MAIM) has published in his blog a statement on behalf of the nationalist grouping named "Combat 18", in which the latter takes responsibility for blowing up the "Neva-Express" train.

However, so far, the investigation has no confirmations about nationalists' involvement in the incident.

"We, the combat independent grouping 'Combat 18', hereby take responsibility for blowing up the 'Neva-Express'. Further more! The time has come. We state that the war will touch on every philistine; this war has no neutrals and no innocent victims; there are just our supporters and our enemies," the statement says.

It is not clear so far, whether the statement was really made by the "Combat 18". But it is known that "Combat 18" is a really existing right-wing radical grouping. Comments from the members of this organization were taken, in particular, by correspondents of the "Russian Newsweek", the "Gazeta.Ru" writes.

Meanwhile, as the "Interfax" reports, so far, the investigatory bodies have no data of involvement of any extremist organization in the accident of the "Neva-Express" train.

The bankruptcy manager has assured that in October, after the sale of underground courses, money will appear to pay off the wage debts to former workers of the "Kingcoal" Company, Tatiana Avachova, a member of the protest group, said at a picket in Gukovo. The picketers noted that this was not the first such promise.

The name of the paratrooper, Mikhail Bezelt, who, according to the official data, blew himself up on a mine in Chechnya, has appeared in the list of Donbass casualties. On the whole, the version of the contractor's death during exercises looks plausible, but it's strange that the exercise area had not been inspected by sappers, the law enforcers interviewed by the "Caucasian Knot" have noted.

The detention of a witch in Chechnya and the report shown by the "Grozny" ChGTRK (Chechen State TV and Radio Company), where she was criticized by a doctor from the Centre for Islamic Medicine, was treated by some social networks commentators as a return to Middle Ages. Their opponents have supported the persecution of sorcerers in the republic.
